Vindication and Compassion

Scripture:

Psalm 135:14  "For the Lord will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants".

Observation:

The Psalmist here is speaking of the Lord and tells us that He will vindicate His people and have compassion on his servants.  The word vindicate means, "to clear of blame or suspicion".  In other words God will clear you of everything the enemy has accused you of and He will have compassion on you.

Application:

Our God is a God of compassion.  He loves us and will always be there for us.  He is touched by the feelings we have according to the book of Hebrews.  He also vindicates us from all offenses.  Our enemy is very good at bringing accusation to us about how bad we have been, how we have messed up and how God couldn't love us because of what we have done.  We can trust God that He will clear us of the blame and accusation of our enemy, the devil, the accuser of the brethren.  We are clear and he loves us!

Prayer:

Lord God, You are faithful and full of compassion for us.  You are awesome and I appreciate You more each day.  Thank you for clearing me of accusations against me.  Thank You for having compassion on me instead of judgment.  Thank You for hearing my cry and having compassion on my life.

Your Son,

Jeff
